Baby was a rock star as usual. Played quietly while I talked to the researcher and went over her 3 day diet record. The researcher (RN) kept saying she was so "sweet", "cute", and that she wanted to "eat her up". It started when I was helping Baby put her shoes back on after her weight and height were checked. Baby told me she loved me and the RN was floored. LOL.Speaking of measurements, she was 38.5 inches and 35 lbs. Glucose was 110 and A1C was 4.8. Beautiful numbers.

About Us

I'm a single mother with a 4 year old girl, Superhero Baby. Her name for herself. She can do anything. The problem? Her "father" is a Type 1 Diabetic and she has the gene. She's part of a study, so we know she is positive for all 3 antibodies. We've been told it's not "if" but "when". Odds greater then 50% that it will be within the next 4 years.
There is no support group for those standing on the edge of the cliff.
So I research and research and take my daughter in for her ogtts every 6 months, her antibody tests every 3 months and test her bg at home a couple times a week and hope.
